You just have to love the freedom of design exercised in the 60's and early 70's from Teisco guitars! This legendary Japanese factory build guitars distributed worldwide under many names, and probably the best known is Silvertone who sold many models through the Sears catalogue in the States.
This 1441 was a transition model made in very limited numbers
There is lots of info about this model on the web, this is the model they made after model 1445. It was the jewel in the Teisco range with pearloid block inlays and triple bound celluloid edge, german carve top etc.
The body is maple over basswood sunburst, with the famous "Hound Dog" pickups. All switches are working just fine, tuners work, vibrato tailpiece works great. We have set up the action for proper neck angle, conditioned the fingerboard and the guitar ready to play! All electrics are original as you can see from the internal images.
There are some marks around the guitar and the frets are worn lower now, but it plays fine. The Silvertone logo was scuffed at some stage of its history, I assume in an attempt to remove it, but as you can see it put up a darn good fight and is still very recognisable!
